Zang Tumb Tumb

Printed on a yellow background, Zang Tumb Tumb is written in large on the top, with Tuumb Tuuum Tuuum Tuuum going across the page, each one getting smaller.

The various fonts and playful disposition of words found on this book cover illustrates the
principles of futurist typography. The “tuumb” placed diagonally across the arc formed by
“Parole in Liberta” recalls the image and sounds of a cannon shooting projectiles, and evokes
the futurist interest in violence and war.
